Adrien Venport [b. 172 BG] was the eldest and most illustrious son of Aurelius Venport and Norma Cenva, as well as later the grandfather of Josef Venport. The boy was conceived with perfect genetics since Norma telepathically tinkered her reproductive system, permitting only the optimum sperm and egg to unite. During the following years of the Butlerian Jihad, he succeeded his father as Directeur of enKee Enterprises after his death. He also assisted his mother to become the first Navigator in 88 BG, after which he founding Foldspace Shipping Company, a subsidary of VenKee which would later becoming the Spacing Guild.
When Adrien was old, Norma convinced him to enter a spice tank in order to become a Navigator like her. Unfortunately, his body was too old an inflexible, and he drowned in spice. Norma grieved for many years, refusing to get close to anyone else again, until her great-grandson Josef managed to get through to her.
